<p>My school goes by a block system. And I am taking the class AP computer Science. I got a D this last quarter and now it is the new and last term. I applied to CSUs and UCs. my GPA is pretty low 3.1 Low and 2.9 weighted. Does that mean I no longer am eligible for acceptance since i got a D in the class. What should i do all my other grades my senior year having being all Bs :(</p>
<p>you should just give up and go get the mcdonalds application instead.</p>

He should be saying that you, Mr. 2.98 and outside the top half. :P</p>
<p>***. Well i guess I can just ask my counselor for advice.</p>
<p>I do have a 2.98 and I’m proud of it because I know that I have a life outside of school.</p>
<p>@Ithindu - Its not that big of a deal unless you are applying to top 20 schools, so should be fine.</p>
<p>D’s do matter for UCs and CSUs which is where the OP has applied. OP, it’s my understanding that you have to repeat a grade of D IF the course is one of the A-G requirements. Does this AP class you’re taking fulfill one of the A-G requirements or is it an extra course you’re taking? I think if it’s a required course it will pose a problem, and if it isn’t, than it might not be an issue. Also, some of the UCs and CSUs are very competitive and a D even in a non-A-G course might hurt your chances, whereas the less competitive ones, it might not. </p>
<p>Definitely check with your counselor for advice.</p>
